Danone Communities’ Post

🌍 At Danone, we believe there is no better business model than one where business operations are focused on doing good and making a positive difference in the long term.  We are happy to share that all Danone companies in the CEE region, including Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania, Czech Republic and Slovakia, are now certified as B Corp™ companies. ✨ This is one of the most prestigious certifications in the world and only recognizes responsible companies with good practices and standards in governance, ethical operations, sustainable sourcing, employee well-being and community investment. Achieving an internationally recognized certification such as B Corp™ is extremely important to us because it is a high recognition of not just one aspect of our company's performance, but our overall performance. 🌿🌐 The B Corp™ certification highlights our high social and environmental responsibility and recognizes the company's efforts in regenerative agriculture, employee benefits and support for local communities. #DanoneBulgaria #BCorp #BCorpCertified #betterbusinessisthefuture

At Nestlé Canada, we believe that our shared purpose is what fuels our people to create long-lasting, positive change. Creating Shared Value is how we approach business to ensure that our decisions exemplify how businesses can be and should be, a force for good.   Today, we’re proudly releasing our Nestlé Canada Creating Shared Value Snapshot that highlights how we’re achieving our purpose through key impact areas that we believe we can make the greatest difference. These impact areas are People in Communities, People and Families, and People and Planet.   We have made significant progress that has continued to propel us forward, helping us reach new benchmarks across sustainable business practices, nutrition, and community investment.   Thank you to our 3700 #NestleChangemakers and key partners for helping us collectively enhance the quality of life for everyone, today and for generations to come.   I invite you to read our CSV Snapshot below, that highlights examples of our progress and stories of how together we are bringing our Purpose to life. https://lnkd.in/gHsNF_fm #sustainability #community #esg #nestlechangemakers

So proud to be working at Danone🌍✅👭 Did you know? B Corp Certification is a designation that a business is meeting high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency on factors from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials. In order to achieve certification, a company must: 🌱Demonstrate high social and environmental performance by achieving a B Impact Assessment score of 80 or above and passing our risk review. Multinational corporations must also meet baseline requirement standards. 🌱Make a legal commitment by changing their corporate governance structure to be accountable to all stakeholders, not just shareholders, and achieve benefit corporation status if available in their jurisdiction. 🌱Exhibit transparency by allowing information about their performance measured against B Lab’s standards to be publicly available on their B Corp profile on B Lab’s website.

Reflecting on Leaving Nestlé Health Science Taiwan: My Thoughts and Wishes As I approach one year since leaving the Nestlé Health Science Taiwan team, I want to share some thoughts and best wishes.Seeing the success of the Italian team with Meritene Mobilis has been inspiring. Their dedication to innovation and quality reminds us of the importance of these values. Here are a few takeaways: 1.Innovation and Quality: The Italian team's success stems from their commitment to innovation and quality. Let's strive for the same in Taiwan, investing in R&D to meet evolving health needs. 2.Education and Service: Offering educational resources and training, like the Italian team, will empower professionals to confidently recommend our products. 3.Customer Feedback: Emphasizing customer feedback is vital for improvement. Let's use it as a guide to enhance our offerings. Though I've moved on, my support for the team remains. Let's continue to excel and bring more health solutions to market. #NestleHealthScience #Innovation #Quality #ProfessionalDevelopment #MeriteneMobilis #Reflections #FutureGoalshttps

B CORP - MORE THAN A BADGE! Did you know that Danone is one of the largest B Corps in the UK & Ireland? We’re really proud to show how ‘better business’ can make a positive impact.      And I’m really proud to work for a B Corp! At @Danone, the B Corp ethos is at the heart of everything we do – balancing purpose and profit so we can use our business as a force for good.     There’s a whole number of ways we show up as a B Corp. Last year, for example, we announced our commitments around health, leading the way by setting firm standards to help ensure that people can access both healthy and tasty products. We also worked to improve the recyclability of our products – from removing the plastic on our Actimel bottles, to switching to tethered caps across our Alpro range. And we became an Includability Committed Employer as part of our ambition to foster uniqueness, inclusivity and diversity within our workplace.   These are just a few examples, but our new B Corp Impact Report takes a look at exactly how we use our business as a force for good for our customers, people and the planet – as well as highlighting areas where we can do more. https://lnkd.in/dFZ8qccw

Nestlé to reduce workforce at its German headquarters - Nestlé is set to reduce its workforce at its German head office in Frankfurt, with plans to cut “slightly more than 100” staff out of the 1,500 currently employed. The company aims to streamline operations, make more focused decisions, and enhance collaboration within international structures for better market alignment. As part of this restructuring, Nestlé is in discussions with workers’ representatives to explore solutions such as retirement, part-time arrangements, and internal development opportunities for affected employees. The company’s statement highlighted the commitment to finding socially acceptable solutions and minimizing redundancies.

You might have heard that Danone in the UK and in Ireland is a BCorp but not be clear what that actually entails. In a nutshell B Corps are businesses that have committed to balance purpose and profit, our ethos is that business can be a force for good.  So, what are we actually doing? Take a look at our latest BCorp Impact Report where we share the progress we have made in our mission, bringing health through food to consumers and patients, how we have worked with our customers, our communities and on our own organisation as well as the areas we want to work on further. If you are not a BCorp yet why not join the growing BCorp movement? https://lnkd.in/eUrCCTMu #BCorp
